Chapter 129: Desperate and Gruesome Eyes

The room was empty!

How could a person just vanish in a blink of an eye?

Qin Wanru came out from behind the screen, walked to the chair in front of which Chu Liuchen had just stood and walked around it several times. At the moment, she really panicked.

There was only such a spot in the room, which was very clear at a glance, but where was Prince Chen, who had got the upper hand in the playful conversation?

"Come here!" She suddenly heard Chu Liuchen's voice from behind.

Qin Wanru was shocked. She turned around hurriedly, but did not find anyone. After looking around with suspicion, she finally fixed her eyes on the hanging curtain.

"Come here quickly!" She heard the displeased voice again. This time, Qin Wanru saw it clearly. She immediately understood that the voice was actually from the curtain, but was shocked at the same time. Looking at the entire layout of the room, she didn't expect that he could hide himself here.

She then turned to walk to the curtain and reached out to raise the curtain when standing in front of the curtain, only to see Chu Liuchen standing at the entrance of a door with his hands clasped behind his back. She walked inside behind him.

Noticing the movement from behind, Chu Liuchen walked into the secret door, followed by Qin Wanru. She went through the secret door, only to find that there was a staircase, which was not big, behind the secret door.

Chu Liuchen stepped on it, and Qin Wanru also stepped on it after thinking for a while.

They went upstairs to the upper floor after turning a corner. She followed him to walk through the door, only to find that it was another room which had almost the same layout as the room downstairs. There was also a desk by the window and a screen which divided the room into two parts.

The most surprising thing was that there was a curtain of the same color hanging in the corners. If Qin Wanru hadn't remembered it clearly, she would almost believe that she had turned to the previous room.

The slight difference was the orientation of the large chair placed in front of the desk was different from that in the room on the second floor.

It was actually a three-storey attic. Qin Wanru couldn't help but secretly admire the royal craft. When she was outside, she thought it was a two-storey attic at the first glance. But in fact, it was a three-storey attic with a secret floor inside.

"Where is the IOU?" Chu Liuchen sat in a large chair, extended his fingers to knock on the table and asked.

Qin Wanru obediently reached out to hand over the IOU which she tightly grabbed in her hand. Compared with Prince Yue, Chu Liuyue, who had been irritated, threatened and even incapable of saving his followers, Qin Wanru suddenly felt that she was so lucky that she had only been blackmailed for some money.

"Why is it so crumpled?" Chu Liuchen pointed at the paper that Qin Wanru placed on the table, and flapped it.

"I... accidentally..." Qin Wanru bit her lips and explained obediently.

"Forget it. It won't happen again. It's your only opportunity. Later I'll send someone to go there with you and take the person away." Chu Liuchen raised his eyebrows.

Qin Wanru silently looked at his face which was gorgeous and slightly childish, and thought that she had better say nothing.

Happened again?

It would never happen again! However, this guy didn't stick to the rules. She didn't know when he would blackmail her again, so it seemed that she had to make more money.

"What do you think of my room?" Chu Liuchen stood up and reached out to wave at Qin Wanru, seemingly showing off.

Qin Wanru had to walk over. Standing by him and looking out, she immediately found that the view here was great. Compared with causally looking out on the second floor, the scenery outside the window looked clearer. From a distance she also saw Chu Liuyue walk out of here behind a eunuch.

He appeared to be in a hurry and full of dissatisfaction.

On the other side, Qin Wanru saw two palace maids who didn't dress like the maids in the Prince Chen's Mansion. Qin Wanru had seen numerous palace maids who dressed like this, so she could tell that they were palace maids at a glance. The two palace maids were also slowly going out but in a direction different from Chu Liuyue's. They seemed to be going into the palace.

They were going into the palace from the small side door of the Prince Chen's Mansion.

She didn't know whether the two palace maids were sent by the Empress Dowager.

She glanced over there, and then involuntarily fixed her eyes in one place. She immediately felt mournful, put her trembling fingers on the windowsill, and involuntarily approached the windowsill.

That place was where she died in the last life.

It was the place where Shao Yanru testified that she had strangled the sixth prince, as well as the place where she had been cut in two at the waist. Under the high stairs, there was a rockery by the lake. Above these high stairs, she saw Chu Liuchen, and what had happened after that was vague. She only remembered that she didn't die on the spot, and there was something flickering in front of her.

A sheet of blood, a sheet of dripping blood...

"Qin Wanru, what's wrong with you?" As she heard a cold voice, her hand was grabbed tightly by someone and shaken forcibly twice.

Qin Wanru felt that it hurt, hurt so much!

It hurt! The kind of pain after being cut in two at the waist hurt so much that she seemed to be unable to breathe. No... not unable to breathe. Could she still breathe? She had been cut in two at the waist, hadn't she?

The violent shaking only caused her more pain which was beyond description. The voice in her ear seemingly intended to break through the blood mist, but every time it was pulled back by the thick blood mist in the end, dragging her soul into the deep and empty hell of blood sea. She felt an extremely sharp pain!

"Qin Wanru!" She felt a sharp pain in her hand and gasped. The blood in front of her eyes suddenly retreated, leaving only Chu Liuchen's cold eyes.

His skin was almost transparent. His eyes were different from those of ordinary people. They were almost pure black, as if all the light shining into his eyes were deeply blocked there. There seemed to be no vitality in his eyes, which made her feel suffocated as if the space had been distorted.

Through his eyes, she only saw despair and gloom!

She was a little familiar with his eyes. No... perhaps she was very familiar with them!

Qin Wanru almost raised her hand subconsciously, and suddenly felt deeply sorrowful. The overwhelming pain almost made her face look ferocious.

"Qin Wanru, what the hell is going on?" Feeling her face beaten twice neither gently nor heavily, Qin Wanru closed her eyes and slowly opened them after concentrating her attention.

It was still Chu Liuchen's face, but it seemed to be a little different from before. His eyes contained a bit gloom and displeasure, but definitely not desperately deadly aura.

His face looked cold, but didn't make her feel suffocated as if the space had been distorted.

"Qin Wanru, have you lost your mind? Why are staring at me? Do you have a crush on me because of my charming face?" Chu Liuchen patted Qin Wanru's small face neither gently nor heavily again, with a hint of a playful smile on his face.

"Childe, what, what happened to me?" Qin Wanru reached out to rub her eyebrows with a drooping face. Feeling a dull pain in her head, she turned her head to look at Chu Liuchen again. She really didn't remember anything in the last life that made her feel familiar with him. She had just glanced at him from a distance.

"Who knows what happened to you. Maybe you were fascinated by me!" Chu Liuchen said naturally with gloom in his eyes, but Qin Wanru didn't notice it.

At that moment, he saw clearly that Qin Wanru's watery eyes, which had always been transparent, became bloody!

Perhaps the scenery in his mansion reminded her of what happened in her family? Could it be that Madam Di became overbearing again after they arrived in the capital?

"Childe, it seems that I've just passed out!" Qin Wanru silently bowed her head and rubbed her head again with her hand. She really didn't know what had happened. Now thinking of it, she found it a bit weird.

Were those scenes what she saw in the last life, or what she casually imagined? The memory was a bit messy and vague, making her unable to tell it was real or illusory.

"You can go now. If you have money, pay off your debts first!" Chu Liuchen said casually, fixed his eyes on Qin Wanru's face. He suddenly reached out to push Qin Wanru's hand out of her face, and then touched her white forehead under her astonished gaze.

"You are not febrile. You seem to be even weaker than me!" After touching her forehead, Chu Liuchen put down his hand and said meaningfully.

"Childe, can I go to your yard and have a walk?" Qin Wanru asked after hesitation.

"What makes you want to have a walk here? The Southern Palace is not a good place!" Chu Liuchen said impatiently. As the eccentric shadow of his long eyelashes fell on his eyes which were pale and almost transparent, his gaze became cold.

"Then... I should leave now?" Qin Wanru thought that he was in a bad mood now, and she happened to have a headache at this moment. At the thought that she still had the chance to come here and didn't need to do that in haste, she hesitated for a while and asked.

Chu Liuchen returned to sit in the large chair and waved directly. After making a salute cautiously, Qin Wanru stepped back. It was not until she descended the stairs and walked through the secret door that she found Xiao Xuanzi standing at the entrance of the second floor with a smile. Seeing Qin Wanru come out, he hurriedly went forward and made a salute with a smile.

After making the salute, he stealthily pointed at the upstairs room and asked in a low voice, "Second Miss, does my master feel better now?"

Qin Wanru looked at Xiao Xuanzi strangely. The strange master had a strange servant. How could Xiao Xuanzi tell that the weak childe was in a good mood now?

She shook her head!

"Not good? No, he has brought Second Miss upstairs?" Xiao Xuanzi reached out to touch his head with incredulity, and looked at the curtain with doubt.

Qin Wanru did not know how he got this answer. She still felt dizzy at this moment, so she nodded at Xiao Xuanzi, passed by him and walked downstairs.

Downstairs, Yujie walked out from the shadow of the corner. Seeing Qin Wanru's pink face became pale, she was shocked, hurriedly supported her and asked in a low voice, "Miss, What happened to you?"

"Go, let's go back!" Qin Wanru touched the thing in her sleeve. It was still there, but this was not the best time, so she whispered.

Although Yujie still had doubts, Qin Wanru was seemingly reluctant to say anything and urgently went outside with her support. A small eunuch consciously led the way.

They walked all the way back to the carriage. After they got in the carriage and the carriage was about to move, there suddenly came a panting voice behind the carriage, "Second Miss, Second Miss... Please wait for me!"
